I only recently have been able to open up to my "husband" (we aren't married) and I have been with him for almost 11 years. I cannot bring myself to just talk about my skin with coworkers or whatever ...

I get that, I can't use BP anymore after using it for years. I wish I could help but my face reacts to almost anything harsh these days so I am pretty much at a loss for controlling acne with any topi...

I wish I could help, but all I can do is tell you I know EXACTLY how you feel. The rapid heartbeat, the mirror checking, thinking about skin all day and even dreaming about it, having a decent skin da...

I have tons of tiny bumps on my chin that I had for years that are starting to clear after only quitting makeup for 4 days....and I have cleared them in the past after quitting makeup for a month (the...

I heard of people getting piercings where they had piercings before that had closed up and scarred, but not sure about acne scars...all I heard though was that it hurts a little more to get scar tissu...

Meh....I hate acne with a flaming passion, but I am not giving up. I have some scars that I hate even more than the acne, still not giving up. Maybe you can't get rid of scars completely, but they can...

I have shitty oily acne prone skin from my dad as well. My husband has skin that hardly ever gets zits. We already have two children, and I sure as hell hope they get their father's skin and not mine....

Oh my...he's baaaaaaack 😀

Mine usually fade within a few months time, but I had one bad zit on my cheek going on two years ago in January and it's STILL slightly red. wtf, man? No indented scar, just redness. I have one indent...

Yepp. I'm a mirror checker as well and think about my skin more often than I am comfortable admitting. It affects me greatly, though I don't think many people, if any, notice.

Oh, I for sure suspected she and humanhelperist were one in the same.

OK, I just watched some videos. I must get this stuff. Thanks for the tip!

I thought that too, Robert. I have a cluster of tons of tiny hole like scars that all appeared around an old chicken pox scar from my childhood. I also never had severe acne on my cheeks so maybe it ...

10% glycolic acid did this to me. I had never used a chemical exfoliator before and after using it for a month or so I am left with random scars that came out of nowhere, mostly icepick looking scars,...

I honestly probably wouldn't even notice your scars if I saw you in person. I'm not just saying that to make you feel better. You mentioned Dane Cook having scars, and I was thinking "What? Dane Cook ...

Your doctor sent you home without even helping you??? I would go see a different doctor, asap.

I love the Atkins diet. First time I did it as a teenager my skin cleared right up. Now in my old age (lol, 27) it doesn't seem to have the same effect, but my acne, or whatever you'd call it, is not ...

I was delivered vaginally...my acne is only mild, though.

I have the energy problem too, and feel awful if I eat sugar. My energy levels are better if I cut out carbs. I don't know if it is from having kids, getting older, or what. Plus I also have anxiety a...

I have a couple shallow scars and my derm told me they could go away over a year or two, but there are no guarantees of course. If mine don't get better after a while I am going to try a dermastamp.

I feel this way, too. I just went back to work after being out for a year and a half, and my acne wasn't an issue back then. Now I am struggling with my skin, though it's not terrible, it still affect...

I had acne when I was a teenager. I went on an Atkins type diet to lose weight when I was 15, and I lost 50lbs and a nice side effect was my acne all cleared up within a couple months. I was eating a ...
